TAMPA, Fla. – Residents of a Florida neighborhood say they are beset by an invasion of turkey vultures that are damaging homes and causing major messes.
Resident Judy Oliveri told WFLA-TV that her neighborhood in the Tampa suburb of Westchase is overrun with the large black birds, and they've been multiplying since they showed up three years ago.

They land on our screens, their under-feathers are all over the roof, their droppings are all over the place,” Oliveri said.
